Veterans aid and attendance pension program confusion.
Many people get the wrong answers from the VA when seeking assistance for an elderly veteran. They hear about programs and call the VA or Veterans Service offices inquiring about what benefits may be available.
More often than not they are asked a basic question:
- Was the veteran wounded or killed while serving.
Well, for most people the answer is no. They are promptly told there is no benefits available then.
You need to be informed when calling the VA or a government office so that you can hopefully get a better answer.
Here is the basic problem, other then misinformed staff.
Many people equate a pension to having retired from the military.
It indeed is not. It is the name that the VA has put onto one arm of their disability benefit program. There are two disability programs offered by the VA.
- VA Disability Compensation which is for service related wounds and injuries that lead to a disability.
- VA Disability Pension which is a non-service connected disability benefit program.
Hopefully soon the proper information will be given without people having to know the “proper” governmental terminology which is often confusing and counter intuitive.
